Every Marvel Villain Esposito Could Be Playing In Captain America: Brave New World
With Esposito’s casting addition beinga big question forCaptain America: Brave New World,the set photo doesn’t really give away a lot of clues to who he could be playing in the MCU movie. As there have been rumors suggesting that the Serpent Society is playing a role inCaptain America: Brave New World, Esposito could be playing a member, given that he is wearing tactical gear. However, with Serpent Society being one of the minor villainous organizations in the Marvel world, it’s hard to nail down a specific character.
A big surprise would be if Esposito is playing a reimagined version of Victor von Doom long before he becomes Doctor Doom, one of the most famous villains in Fantastic Four’s entire Marvel canon. Given how Esposito has revealed that whoever he is playing is gettingan MCU television series,a crucial character like Doctor Doom would make a lot of sense. With almost 20 days being used for theCaptain America: Brave New Worldreshoots, Victor may have a small role in this film to help him get a foundation before his solo show.
With someone as gifted as Esposito, who has played terrific villains in past TV shows and movies, time will tell who he is actually playing inCaptain America: Brave New World’s cast. Esposito has teased it is a character that not a lot of people would be expecting, but on what scale is the bigger mystery. Hopefully, there will be more news on who Esposito is portraying inCaptain America: Brave New Worldas he gets ready to take part in the MCU.
